"Nonprofits have to recognize that they're businesses, not just causes. There's a way to combine the very best of the not-for-profit, philanthropic world with the very best of the for-profit, enterprising world. This hybrid is the wave of the future for both profit and nonprofit companies." http://managementhelp.org/soc_entr/soc_entr.htm |

This article from the May 20, 2009 Stanford Social Innovation Review is a great discussion about social entrepreneurship by Paul C. Light. It not only defines social entrepreneurship, but describes who can become a social entrepreneur.
